An employee of the Protestant parish in Besigheim points to an entry in the parish register in Besigheim, near Stuttgart, southern Germany on Thursday, June 4, 2009, which marks the ancestor of U.S. President Barack Obama. According to parish records uncovered by experts at the genealogy Web site Ancestry.com, Obama’s 6th great-grandfather Johann Conrad Woelflin, was born and christened in the Besigheim parish in 1729, then he sailed aboard a ship called “Patience” in 1750 to America.(AP Photo/Daniel Maurer)
